Act II Scene ii Directions: Put the following events in order from 1 (first event) to 10 (last event) Romeo at last speaks and they share the distress of the feud between their families. Juliet warns him of the dangers should he be discovered in the garden. After another brief absence, Juliet comes back and they arrange a time for Juliet s messenger to be sent to him the following day. From a hidden position, he listens to Juliet. With the approach of dawn, they reluctantly part. Romeo steals into Juliet s garden without being seen. He hears her declaring her love for him and her sadness that family rivalries should come between them. These worries are interrupted by the nurse s call, at which point Juliet says she will be back in a few minutes. On her return, Juliet asks Romeo to send word the next day, if he intends to marry her. When she asks Romeo if he loves her, he openly declares his great love, but Juliet is worried by the suddenness of their strong feelings for each other. (Adopted by Collie & Slater, 1987)

6 Act Two Notes I. Shakespeare and His Times William Shakespeare ( ) was born to a fairly wealthy, prominent family in Stratford-on-Avon during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. He was the third of eight children and lived the expected life for a child of his social standing, attending primary or petty school and then a Latin grammar school. At age eighteen, Shakespeare wed Anne Hathaway, a woman six years his senior. The couple had three children: Susanna, and twins Judith and Hamnet. Little is known about Shakespeare s life between the years of 1585 and 1592, but it is known that Shakespeare traveled to London some time between the ages of eighteen and twenty-eight and joined the theater. He debuted as a playwright with his first performance in Shakespeare s world was a very different one from that of today, and the differences are reflected clearly in his plays. For example, children in Shakespeare s day had no rights except those allowed by their parents. Teenagers had to obey their parents every whim until they married. Marriages were commonly arranged by the parents for purposes other than love and affection between the parties involved. Daughters married young for the most part, often as early as fourteen or fifteen years of age. A father had a God-given obligation to choose a husband for his daughter who would be able to support her materially and protect her physically. The father s right was not contingent upon the daughter s agreement or approval, though certainly a father would want his daughter to be happy as well as provided for. Wives, just like children, were obliged to obey their husbands. These cultural tenets pushed to extremes for dramatic purposes can be witnessed in Romeo and Juliet. Other ideas of the time that are evidenced in Romeo and Juliet are that of courtly love and Petrarchan conceit. Courtly love is a code and philosophy of love that flourished first in France and later in England and other countries. According to this philosophy, falling in love was by necessity accompanied by extreme emotional distress helplessness, confusion, agitation, sleeplessness, loss of appetite, and a general agony over the situation. The lover engages in interminable reflections on the nature of love and his own part in the state. This code is seen clearly in Romeo s afflicted state of being in love with Rosaline. Petrarchan conceit was a type of conceit an overblown, almost ridiculous metaphor comparing two almost irreconcilably different things used by Petrarch in his Italian love sonnets. Conceits are characterized by the use of oxymoron and paradox. Romeo utilizes this in his descriptions of his forlorn state to his friends.

7 Act Two Journal Journals demonstrate your ability to write on a subject with voice and choice (infusing personality, reflecting on the topic, and writing in a way that is vivid); of course, you must also provide support from the text. An average length for a journal entry is two paragraphs. Act II Journal Topic: Imagine that you are Romeo & Juliet, and that you are facing the problem that they are dealing with: forbidden love. However, instead of eloping and angering their parents, you decide to tackle this problem in a different way. In one paragraph, propose a different storyline for this play. Provide a synopsis of how the rest of the story would play out. Provide a rationale for your suggested alternate ending (it needn t be a happy ending, although it may be).
